New York City is made up of five boroughs: the Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens and Staten Island. Each one has enough attractions—and enough personality—to be a city all its own. Learn more about them with this guide.

Manhattan, NY

description/

"Wow" is one word to describe this lovely, contemporary bi-level bistro. The glass facade stops people in their tracks, gazing from the street at the ficus tree growing up from the bottom floor. A French team is behind it, specializing in toasted open-face sandwiches called tartines, which come in both savory and sweet varieties. Cheese and charcuterie plates, soups and salads round out the menu.
